Hi Tim! I want your opinion, about this thing. I know a solution from biggest our problems and it’s call The Venus Project – Resource Based Economy. Watch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KphWsnhZ4Ag we can have much better. Unite!

The Venus Project offers a comprehensive plan for social reclamation in which human beings, technology and nature will be able to coexist in a long term, sustainable state of dynamic equilibrium.

This video presentation advocates a new socio-economic system, which is updated to present-day knowledge, featuring the life-long work of Social Engineer, Futurist, Inventor and Industrial Designer Jacque Fresco, which he calls a Resource-Based Economy. This documentary details the root causes of the systemic value disorders and detrimental symptoms caused by our current established system. The film details the need to outgrow the dated and inefficient methods of politics, law, business, or any other “establishment” notions of human affairs, and use the methods of science, combined with high technology, to provide for the needs of all the world’s people. It is not based on the opinions of the political and financial elite or on illusionary so-called democracies, but on maintaining a dynamic equilibrium with the planet that could ultimately provide abundance for all people.

Thanks Tim, after first discovering Chase Javis earlier this year when I stumbled upon the Chase Javis Live video you did with him, it was great to hear part of his back story to his success as a photographer. I’ve personally found CreativeLive to be a great resource while I’m on the journey to taking my photography to the next level.

“Only days ago, Turner Broadcasting let me know that the May 27th digital launch of The Tim Ferriss Experiment has been canceled. Some (not all) of the higher-ups want to try selling it to traditional outlets. (Sidenote: If you bought an iTunes season pass, definitely request a refund)”

Yeah, but that’s one short paragraph in a much larger blog post about something else. Not a lot of people have seen that and frankly it’s been poorly communicated by Tim. I know it must be painful to admit failure, but it would be helpful to all of, who waited ages for these TFX episodes to drop, a more detailed response on when and where we can see these episodes – for US and Internationals.

Stu, I hear you and I apologize for any confusion. Now, in fairness, Turner Broadcasting didn’t give me any information until the last-minute cancellation. I also recently announced the cancellation on Twitter/Facebook multiple times. Sadly, Turner has no plans to make any episodes available, and I am not given the ability to communicate directly with iTunes season pass purchasers (or I would have emailed everyone ASAP). I am working to fix all of this that, but, in the meantime, I’d definitely request a refund.

I really enjoy the podcast. I hope I can add this to my regular rotation.

I have to say though I am still on the fence when it comes to meditation. Growing up near and going to college in Boulder, CO I am always a bit on guard when it comes to “hippie” activities.

What should be the main goal or point to concentrate on during meditation and how are you measuring the outcome? From what I have seen there is generally no proven scientific studies that either prove or disprove the benefits of meditation outside of stress reduction.

Great podcast Tim! Thanks for doing these, I always come away with some great new knowledge and cool new things to look into. You have been a HUGE inspiration in my life for a few years now after hearing you on the Rogan podcast and reading your book TFHWW. Keep up the good work and thanks again!

Seriously, check out the entrepreneurship and startup courses at http://www.creativelive.com! You can watch them for free when they first broadcast. Totally worth it. Also, you might want to consider checking out The 4-Hour Workweek, though your education (i.e. school) should come first at this point. If you can, take a year abroad. Study abroad and live with a host family whose native language *isn’t* English. It will change your life and make you more powerful than any book can.

Was referring to your style of interviewing.
The person conducting the interview, his mood and choice of words, determines the responses.
You’re very good at eliciting information making a strong impression, and I think part of it is because you interview people and ask questions that you’re genuinely interested in (?) – making that excitement contagious to the person being interviewed aswell.

I guess the question I’m asking is: “How do I become a good interviewer?”
(Sorry. Had to refine my thinking a bit)
Resources, principles?

Sam may have been referring to something we all do to some extent, depending on the situation – take on the communication style of the person we’re talking to. Perhaps we do this for reasons similar to why yawning is contagious.

I believe you briefly discussed something like this in Episode 3 with Justin Mager and Kelly Starrett – the part where you talk about the skill of imitating people.

I wanted to thank you for following through with the podcast. I always enjoyed when you appeared on the Joe Rogan podcast but now Tim Tim Talk Talk has quickly become my favourite podcast to listen to!

The video format was cool, but I understand how labour intensive it is. It was extremely fitting for Chase to be on the first video test. CreativeLive is one an amazing website!

Also, I love the quick little “essays” and look forward to more of those in the future! Keep it up!

That said, I would REALLY love getting a transcript that I could read – VERY time consuming to find particular quotes and sentences if I didn’t jot them down while listening for the first time (and that rarely happens).

Thanks for the brilliant work – keep being healthy, chubby and happy so that You could deliver even more awesome stuff for the Universe. ;) Wait for the next episode!..
